*flash back* I lay there there staring up into my moms big brown eyes. Her smile so beautiful and voice so gentle. "You are my sunshine , my only sunshine , you make me happy when skies or grey" *five loud bangs on the* I watch my mothers facial expression change from happy to scared.

Mom: "Run Ciara hide in the closet , keep the doors closed and don't say a word"

Me:"what's happening mom" I whispered in fright , we raced to the back of house as we heard the front door blow open.

mom: go Ciara go now!

I did as I was told and ran to my closet , at 12 I had no clue on what was going on .

guys voice: "WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU AT BITCH" I cried as I heard the footsteps growing louder and louder. and I saw him . my mom stood there frozen in the the center of the room.

Guy: "Didnt I tell you , you can't run from me ?"

Mom:"no baby I would never try to ru.." He slapped my mother in the face before she could finish her sentence .

Guy "Where's my daughter Tammy ?"

Mom:" she went to a friends house for a slumber party" she cried.

He grabbed her by her neck and slammed her on the ground. my heart stopped as I watched through blurry eyes.

"I lay there hiding inside my closed closet as my mother screamed . I was there . As he murdered her, she looked me in my eyes and whispered "stay there Ciara , I love you , don't forget me"

*end of flashback*

Teacher: " ms. Young ..... MS.YOUNG !

I snapped back into reality .

Me:"uhhhh yea?" I silently answered.

Teacher: "either you start paying attention in my class or you get out , do I make myself clear ?"

Me: "yes ma'am" I hung my head" .

Since the accident I have been living with my grandma and she's been the only one I felt like I could talk to besides twin . I was quiet because I was broken but of course , being a teenager in high-school no one understood or gave a fuck . If the girls weren't loud , rich , thick , or pretty than the boys didn't care about you .

Me , I was Carmel tone , light brown and black hair that went down my back , light brown eyes , little tummy with a lot of hips and butt. When you first met me you wouldn't even believe to think I was as quiet as I was. Guys tried to talk to me before , but I couldn't allow myself to let anyone new into my life . I guess I think I'm drake now huh ? No new friends .

"POOBIE !" I turned around as I heard the voice of my best friend Lala . she's been my r.o.d chick since we were three when this lil bitch sold my juice box for a grape. I hugged her like there was no tomorrow. Me and Lala were completely different . She was Latino and black , big butt with a small waist. light hazel eyes , brown and blond hair that stopped mid-way at her back. And unlike me Lala was loud she didn't take shit from no body . all the guys where at her feet and she brushed them off like they were nothing . don't get me wrong , momma didn't raise no punk but I was quiet.

"Ughh Lala must china hear yo loudmouth ass ?" I laughed

"Yes bitch ! I'm hella turnt up and it ain't even 12 yet , CAUSE WHO MAD ?" She screamed , I just laughed and walked with my twin to lunch .

"Ayee baby , I want sum fries with that shake !" this boy trev yelled across the caff. To Lala .

"The first thing you need is a drink cause you mighty fucking thirsty" she yelled as the whole caff. Bursted out laughing . Lala was a trip , but I loved her.

"Twin there's a party at dre house and before you give me speech just hear me out hoe"

"I'm listening" I told her while eating my burger.

"It's basically the end of our sophomore year and Lala Romero refuses to end it by sitting on a couch , hell ! A thug needs to get out the house some time and she need her twin to be right there" "plus I see yo ass eyeing dre like a snake eyes a rat , yumm yumm looking ass" Lala said making me laugh.

"you already know I don't do boys and I don't do parties , so you can go and act like tupac, by yourself all you want too"

*lala gets up and walks to the center of the caff. * Knowing her extra ass she about to do some.

"CIARA I WANNA PARTYYY !" Lala starts dancing while everybody look up her. She turns my way giving me the "if you don't go , ill keep doing it" look. So I throw my hands up and surrendered , already embarrassed .

"Bitch you hella fucking extra!" I laughed as Lala sat down .

"Twin I had to do something ! You just can't command a red nose to stay and expect it to not shake" she said laughing.

***************************

School was over and me and Lala walked to our red and pink Porsche cars. lala's parents were lawyers so they gave her anything she ever needed or wanted and because we were partially sisters with different moms , they gave me anything I wanted too.

"Come by my house twin , so we can get ready for tonight okay?" Lala asked before getting in the car .

"yea that's fine , just let me check on my granny and ill be by in a hour or so"

"Bet".

I pulled out the parking lot and drove the rest of the way listening to Cassie.

*New young ruler of the beat and the vox

Breezy tonic, fresh like rain

My beat mans cruel, he's the freakiest box banger

Fox hanging on my coat, rocks hanging on my chain

And that's how you know I've been hunting the game...

Bang bang and I hit it with impeccable aim

Bang bang and I blow it up, they don't know wassup

If they think for a second that I do it for the fame

'Cuz I make music to numb your brain...

I make music to numb your brain... *

Ayee that's my shit though . I pulled up to my 3 stories house to find my granny out on the garden planting.

"Hey granny" I say embracing her in a big hug .

"What it do" my grandma replied tilting her gardening hat to the side. I swear my granny was an OG . at just 59 my granny was badd AF , yes she had my mom at a young age and my mom had me at a young age . But imma wait until I'm out of collage to even think about having a kid.

"I'm staying over twin house , tonight to go to a party, are you going to be okay?"

"You a damn lie , I know you out of all people ain't going to no party" my grandma said chuckling. Ohh so she was tryna be funny !? Haha.

"Ahaha frfr ! Twin making me go since its the end of the year" I say

"Awhhh shit , you bet not be going nowhere looking like a bookworm , lemme find out you looking like you just came from the dumpster and we gone fighttt !" Granny said lbvs (laughing but very serious)

I couldn't help but to break out in tears laughing ! "Im gone look good grandma , I promise"

"Alright baby , you have fun" she said kidding me on the cheek and dismissing me .
